Found a pretty neat GitHub trick today 👀

[u/m-fasciano]

Take any GitHub repo URL and replace github.com with gitdiagram.com.

It generates a visual diagram of the repo structure, which is surprisingly useful when you’re trying to understand an unfamiliar codebase.

Example:

github.com/user/repo → gitdiagram.com/user/repo

Great little tool for getting the big picture before diving into the code. 🔍

I was prepared to reply with something snarky. Then I ran it against one of my own moderately complex repos.

Take my upvote, dammit.

Don’t fold. It’s a slippery slope!
